The firing of Lindsey Halligan is a symptom of a greater disease effecting the DOJ and the Trump Administration. The restart of the criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump Administration is another symptom of the same disease. The new lawsuit to stop an illegal criminal investigation of a member of Congress is an antidote to that disease. A decision has been made about Trump’s Georgia criminal prosecution that demonstrates what happens when the wrong prosecutor gets a case. Michael Popok and Karen Friedman Agnifilo anchor the Thanksgiving edition of the Legal AF podcast.

The Intersection with Michael Popok Full Episode - 11/25/2025
The American Revolution (the documentary) is on Popok’s mind, along with “Common Sense” as he uses 4 new law and politics developments to explain how we are in our “King George” moment and patriots must respond. On the Intersection Podcast, Popok dives deep into what the firing of Lindsey Halligan by a Federal Judge means and what will happen in the next 72 hours that should set your hair on fire. Then he turns to a brand new federal court order that the Trump DOJ and FBI must IMMEDIATELY turn over all communication between Trump and Epstein without further delay, and whether Judge Chutkan’s battle with Trump will turn out better this time. Judge Boasberg revives his criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump Administration and DOJ which threatens to have Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer and now Fed Appellate Court Judge Emil Bove found in criminal contempt. Rep Eric Swalwell fires the first salvo suing Trump’s attack dog Bill Pulte for his phony mortgage fraud charges and investigation first, winning that all important race to the courthouse. Finally, Popok explains why Former DOJ veteran Joe Schnitt sues to get his old DOJ job back after being fired for telling a dating app “undercover” the truth about Trump and the Epstein Files and coverup and getting fired for it.

Trump's Secret Circle Comes Back to Haunt Him as Files Near...
Trump doesn’t just have an Epstein child sex trafficking problem; he has a problem in that he was friends with 3 different people accused, indicted, or convicted of preying on and sexually abusing girls: Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and the late John Casablancas. As Maxwell demands a second immunity agreement because she likely knows she committed perjury when she testified to Trump’s DOJ, Popok examines the relationship between Trump, Epstein, Casablancas and their purported “modeling agencies,” “beauty pageants” including some based in Trump’s Plaza Hotel, and the relationship between Casablancas and Epstein, as the survivors continue to demand justice and that AG Bondi not block the release of any files with Trump’s name on them.

Trump Gets Wrecked as Dismissal Tanks Comey Case
Looks like Trump AG Pam Bondi is responsible for having both the Former FBI Director James Comey and current NY AG Tish James indictments tossed today by a federal judge, along with Lindsey Halligan as interim US Attorney in Virginia. Michael Popok digs deep into Judge Currie’s earth-shattering twin rulings today, in which she rejects Bondi’s appointment of Halligan as illegal, and scoffs at Bondi’s last-minute series of retroactive ratification “memos” as she declares Halligan an illegal, non-prosecutor when she obtained the now dismissed indictments. Popok also explains who fills the immediate prosecutor vacancy (and it ain’t Trump); and what is likely to happen next in the cases with emergency appeals and social media attacks by Trump and his DOJ.

Trump DOJ Shredded in Court by Pissed Off Judge
A Federal Judge called DOJ witnesses "word salad testimony" and "zeros" as she decides whether to release Kilmar Abrego Garcia from custody and send him to Costa Rica (or give him amnesty) instead of sending him 3000 miles away to Liberia. Michael Popok dissects the evidentiary hearing before Judge Xinis and why she may release Garcia as a remedy to punish the Trump Administration for abuse of power and prosecutorial misconduct.
